BerwickMad Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Even on NATO, something Corbyn has talked about for decades, he was still mumbling along reading from notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Am Featha Taigh Nan Clach Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 If I was a Unionist, I'd vote for Corbyn in a GE election in a heartbeat. I agree with the vast majority of his 'ethos' and have really taken to his 'kinder politics' stance. A welcome change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are having a laugh!I wonder how you would react if your "neighbours" decided to come and live in your house, kicked you out into the street and invited their friends to build another house in your garden.

bob the tank Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Yes a good point but not a truly comparable situation. In fairness to Israel, they are practically on a permanent war footing thanks to the antics of their wonderful neighbours. Not because they are destroying housing built by humanitarian aid from the EU.

DrewDon Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 From listening to the debate in Glasgow, Smith appears to have hardened his position on Brexit since the beginning of this campaign. His initial line was that he would support Labour holding a second referendum once the negotiations had been completed; unless I have misunderstood, he now appears to be proposing something resembling an unconditional opposition to triggering Article 50. I voted Remain, but I found myself closer to Corbyn than Smith on that. The focus should surely be on crafting a better and fairer post-Brexit plan than the Tories, rather than just opposing it outright. Also, I'm not convinced that Labour is that bothered about having an ardently Europhile leader. If it were, Corbyn would not have won so overwhelmingly last year. It wasn't as if his Euroscepticism wasn't well documented before he was elected: it was, and it did him very little harm. I'm not sure why Smith is assuming that it will be different this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
